Writings by Jill
My name is Jill . Before I was born they all thought I was going to be a boy. I don’t know or how they came up with the name jack but they decided to call me that. When I was born …….I was a girl, of course. My oldest sister said “you should name her Jill since she is not a Jack”. My dad can’t really take a joke so he took it seriously. When my mom was recovered my dad came to tell her the news. He told her they had a baby girl and that her name was Jill. “Jill? Why that?” said my mom. “Well Ally said we should name her Jill” . Later that day when my sister found out what they named me she said it was just a joke. So I was named on a joke. This isn’t the best thing.
My nickname is Jillygoat. I got it when I was 6 or 5 because I smelled like a goat sometimes because I hated showers and baths. So that is how I got the name Jillygoat. The thing is that I really dislike that nickname. And I hate it when my family calls me that. Or friends who know about it. Another nickname that I have is Jillibob and I like that one but only my family and close friends call me that. I got the Bob part from my dad for a reason I don’t know but it is his name.
The reason my parents picked the name Jack is because my mom liked the name Jack. She also like the sound of Jack but it is a good thing she likes the name Jill too.
